Senator Voorhees, has bsen inter-
viewed a Kansas Oily. he talked
abous the Repuhliean party, aboutt TIE
aaminisirasion and about the country
In general and wound up By giving his
Opinion Of PrssIdsnt olsysland's order
for the return Of the captured rebel
days. Here "a what he said Of II:
By the way, speaking Of the haR inei-
Gent reminds me Of TIE man who had .
neiahboK who used 10 enter his barn e
al times and borrow bis horse. ne
used the hoEss 90 much that be thought
be had . Fight 10 10 supsFiorsso The oWn-
e.. TIE accommodating owner grew
tired Of maintaining the beast for TIE
baue6t Of his neighboF, and one night
vent ever 70 that gentleman's hodse 70
got the animal. he was met BY the
nsighboE, shotgun In hand, who refused
10 give no the animal, saying: II know
the horse Il yours. but tie id impohie
OF you nosing around my h0use IN the
night. Come IN the daytime and asx
for the horss and perhaps ! viii let you
have IL"
This h probably Senator vpofhees'
idsa Of 8 capital story, but be wOald
greatly Obliee the public II be would
point out its application 10 thsFsbel nAe
episode. The loyal people Of the North
viii probably be unable TO be the con
nsction without assistance. The flags
according to the Senator's theory, % Il
70 be presumed. are improperly With
held frsm their owners By the nationa
government, as the horse was improp'
sFIy withheld from its owner. ThI
story also seems 10 imply that It ID th'
Senator'S belief that She flags must b
surrendered a. soon As the pFopsE de
mand for them b made By che Southern
States. This theory h fully in keepinG
with the shady record Of Senator vooF
bees during the years 10 which the iiaRI
we're being captured. butit will not b
very enthusiastically received by the 10y
al psOple Who applaudsd their capture o
BY the veterans Who captured them.
